Wild video shows moment an Ohio family’s ‘fat and hungry’ dog sets kitchen on fire
That’s no Dalmatian.
A kitchen fire started by their “fat and hungry” puppy could have an Ohio family out of their home for six to eight months — or nearly nine dog years.
Homeowner Chris DiLuzio was at work when he received an alarming call that his house was on fire. No one was home, but his security camera caught the confused culprit in action — one of his apparently famished French bulldogs.
“If we didn’t have it on camera, it’s kinda a far-fetched tale; you wouldn’t really believe it,” DiLuzio told Cleveland 19 News.
The security camera footage shows his black Frenchie named Harvey perched on a chair reaching for a bowl of snacks atop the stove while his other tan bulldog innocently watches on.
“That’s him just being fat and hungry,” DiLuzio said of Harvey.
Within seconds, the click of a burner igniting is heard. Harvey, unbothered, seems to abandon his quest for his treats as he plops down on the chair, the clip shows.
Meanwhile, the kitchen is quickly filled with smoke as flames can be seen growing from the stovetop.
Harvey and his canine sibling were saved and the fire was put out, but not before causing significant damage to the family’s home.
The DiLuzio family, which includes a squadron of six children, expects to be out of their home as repairs are underway for several months, right at the start of the school year.
The pooch’s accidental act of arson is not the first of its kind.
Different families in Colorado, Oklahoma and Texas have all nearly lost their homes due to fires started by their beloved pooches in the past year.
Why artists are dropping out of the Great American State Fair
Musicians cancel appearances at the Great American State Fair after questions over Freedom 250 and claims the July Fourth event is nonpartisan.
As several states pull out of the Great American State Fair in Washington, D.C., questions are coming up closer to home — Is Ohio still participating?
Massachusetts and North Carolina won’t participate in the fair, according to USA TODAY. Reports also indicate that Connecticut, Illinois, Maine and Oregon are also expected to skip the event, with some states citing a combination of financial and political concerns as reasons for opting out.
Here’s what we know about Ohio’s role in the event so far.
Is Ohio skipping the 2026 Great American State Fair?
Ohio has confirmed its participation with a booth titled “Ohio: The Heart of it All,” which showcases state parks and childhood development. The governor’s office began the planning process for the booth in February, shortly after the Great American State Fair was announced, said Lisa Peterson director of communications in the governor’s office.
The Great American State Fair, organized by Freedom 250, is a 16-day exposition that will be displayed on the National Mall from June 25 to July 10.
Additionally, Ohio will host a stop from the “Freedom Truck,” a traveling exhibit tied to Freedom 250. The exhibit will appear at the Ohio State Fair in Columbus. Organizers describe the Freedom Truck as a mobile museum that visits existing fairs and community events, not a version of the Great American State Fair itself.
When does the ‘Freedom Truck’ stop in Ohio?
The Freedom Truck is scheduled to be at the Ohio State Fair from July 27 through Aug. 10, 2026 at the Ohio Expo Center in Columbus.
The exhibit includes interactive and historical exhibits about the founding of the United States, according to organizers.
The mobile museum will be open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends, with the final day closing at 6 p.m.
What is the Great American State Fair?
The Great American State Fair is a 16-day event planned for June 25 through July 10 on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Organized by Freedom 250, the fair is part of a broader effort to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary with state exhibits, food, entertainment and cultural programming, according to USA TODAY.
President Donald Trump announced he will headline the Freedom 250‑organized Great American State Fair and hold an “America Is Back” rally, the publication reports.
America250 vs. Freedom 250: What’s the difference?
The Great American State Fair is part of Freedom 250, a Trump-backed initiative to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary.
That effort is different from America250, the official, congressionally-authorized program coordinating nationwide commemorations. Meanwhile, America 250‑Ohio, the Ohio Commission for the U.S. Semiquincentennial, is the official state-level partner to the national America250 effort.
